Crystal Palace are close to agreeing a compensation fee with Arsenal to finalise the transfer of Dan Casey. The 2007-born attacking midfielder rejected a new Arsenal contract and has been strongly linked with Palace and Norwich. Arsenal reportedly contacted both clubs and also tabled an offer to retain Casey while talks continue. Casey scored 20 goals for Arsenal U18 last season and could leave if a compensation package is agreed. Palace view the move as smart business given their track record of integrating young players into the first team. Casey is versatile across attacking midfield roles and is likely to seek regular senior minutes at Selhurst Park. The move echoes Eberechi Eze's pathway from Arsenal academy to Palace to international recognition.
Crystal Palace are reportedly close to agreeing the amount of compensation to pay to Arsenal as they finalise a transfer move for Dan Casey. The talented young attacking midfielder has recently been linked strongly with Palace, and it seems a deal is now close for him to swap the Emirates Stadium for Selhurst Park. That's according to News Shopper, who state that Palace look to be closing in on signing Casey after he rejected a new contract offer from Arsenal.
Eze notably started out in Arsenal's academy when he was a kid, but a slow start to his career meant it wasn't really until he joined Palace that he made a name for himself. Now a full England international, Eze is regarded as one of the top attacking midfielders in Europe, and made his way back to Arsenal this summer.
